Hand feeds are good at the start as you get the technique down. At first you want the hand feeds perfect so you don't have to move, but then you want to progress so they're slightly different and you have to adjust your feet, making sure to keep good form. Once you've got the hang of that, then progress farther back. You will get the most effective practice if the person feeding you has done hand feeding before and knows the nuances of it, as well as has a good eye for technique.
